"We will be playing on both the local front and in Africa and that requires a good team. I am here to do my part to help. Football is a team sport and so it won't take me alone to improve the team but the collective effort of everyone here," he said.
"I am here to do my part and I'm confident that my colleagues would also do theirs so that, together, we can put the team in a respectable position," he concluded.
